"...Oh, right, earlier things were happening so suddenly that I haven't introduced you yet."

"This is Cen Yueyue, a daughter of the Cen Family Village from the Southern Border. You should be able to see the relationship between us—yet to be engaged, perhaps we're lovers."

"Ah yes, the same legendary Southern Border Saintess. Just now she performed the Ignited Fire for you, that was her. Don't look at me like that, I've met her grandfather, and she's already met my senior sister."

Cen Yueyue just showed a polite smile, without any introduction or pleasantries, she continued to cozy up with Jiang Feng, drinking tea.

It might seem somewhat impolite to outsiders, but for her, this was an expression of goodwill to the utmost. To put it this way, if not for Jiang Feng's presence, she wouldn't even bother giving the two before her a glance.

The difference in identity and strength was too vast. Note that in the Cen Family Village, if someone attempts to fawn over her, anyone under the Nascent Soul Stage wouldn't even get to meet her. Despite her cat-like ferocity in front of Jiang Feng, to others, she is the most prideful Saintess in the Southern Border.

Eyes widened.

For An Xuan and An Si, they even doubted if they were dreaming. They've heard of the Southern Border Saintess, particularly the former Saintess, known throughout the world. And this current Saintess was won over by you?

But after taking a look at the woman beside Jiang Feng, it made sense. The identities of them were equivalent, a Sword Immortal heir and a Southern Border Saintess; it's hard to say who's superior. The key point was Cen Yueyue's realm currently truly surpasses Jiang Feng.

Twenty-one years old, at the Peak of Core Formation, this is no longer a wild dream.

It is a daydream.

"Alright, let's discuss business."

Clapping hands.

Their attention was fully drawn back. In terms of identity, Jiang Feng was counted as their superior now, capable of issuing orders on any matter.

"Let's start from the commotion at the city gate earlier."

"You've seen the confrontation with Wu Daoxu. The way I insulted him was to let him find a target through hatred, initially worried he might lose his senses under the influence of the Yin Soul. But now it seems I've overthought; his mind is more steadfast than I imagined."

"Regarding the matter between me and the Xue Family, you should be aware, including the battle with the Fan Yin Sect three years ago, which you should be clear about, since Yu Ying personally stepped in to handle it for me, thus this matter has no right or wrong."

"I'm not someone with a soft heart. But if, due to my actions, directly or indirectly causing him harm, my mind would be affected. At least I don't want this matter to become a regret; future grudges he might seek from me won't concern you."

"In the coming days, he can come to Qingshui County freely; you need not interfere, as long as he doesn't oppress the populace or commit murder and arson. If he maintains his heart, willing to assist others with his frail body and save all, just let him be."

"If willing, within your capacity, offering some help is fine too. If he encounters problems, you shall say that I spared him, and I'll take full responsibility for any future issues."

Both nodded simultaneously.

Obviously, the man before them was just twenty, yet younger than even one generation from them. His demeanor already carried the air of a leader. A few days ago, when Jiang Feng returned to Qingshui County, he still seemed audacious, even pretending as a villain to beat them up.

Yet when serious, the shock brought by this youngster was no less than his terrifying strength, as they couldn't even imagine how Jiang Feng was handling Wu Daoxu's matter.

Responsible, competent, strong, and it's no wonder the Southern Border Saintess chose him.

"Moreover, in a few days I'll depart for Dongyue with her, heading east then north. The surrounding environment has been peaceful lately, and in the coming days, we'll clear any nearby evil spirits to ensure absolute safety."

"You should guess why I'm descending this time. After the Nine Peaks martial competition ends, sect disciples simultaneously go down the mountain for training, naturally preparing for the ceremony in two years. Cen Family Village and Purple Cloud Palace are now somewhat allies; if encountered, you may state Yue Yue's name."

"I know what you're worried about, don't worry. You carry a hint of Gu Worm's aura, intentionally left by Yue Yue for identifying your kind."

Yawning lazily.

Of course, it wasn't the two subordinates listening to instructions, but Cen Yueyue.

It seems the woman sensed laziness, after all, during this period, Miss Cen had exhausted herself hurrying here, running for at least seven or eight days from the core area of the Southern Border to the border. Countless matters along the way were tedious. With her ability, she wouldn't tire so easily.

The main reason was Jiang Feng's presence.

Suddenly feeling safe, she immediately started to fall asleep.

"I-I'll go tidy up the room and heat the water now, sir, please wait for a moment."

Sitting by the side, An Rou watched a few adults chatting yet unable to join the conversation, immediately got up. Though young and an orphan, she's quite sensible, with strong self-care abilities, she promptly stood up to tidy the room. From several days ago, Jiang Feng already cleared two rooms upstairs.

An Rou still lived here, but they didn't conflict. After all, his home was a former inn, with quite a scale. Miss Cen, with her lazy demeanor, blinked her eyes. Her attitude towards the child was notably kind, she didn't refuse the goodwill, but showed a big sister-like smile.
